HYBRID DRIVE

The LS 600 h is the world’s most powerful luxury hybrid sedan. State-of-the-art Lexus Hybrid Drive technology delivers rapid linear acceleration (0 – 62 mph in 6.3 seconds), quiet running, impressive fuel economy and lower emissions.

A 5-litre V8 petrol engine and a high-performance electric motor combine intelligently, resulting in the exhilarating performance of a 12-cylinder car - yet with the fuel economy and lower emissions of a six-cylinder car.

At lower speeds, progress is often emissions-free as the car runs on electric power alone. As speed increases the V8 engine seamlessly takes over. The breathtaking performance of the LS 600h is evident when the petrol engine and electric motor combine to provide massive power.

Key to this innovative technology is the intelligence with which it continually orchestrates these power resources and ensures electricity generation to constantly recharge the battery.
